Niclas "sHockWave" Jensen, 19 years old, originally hails from Denmark. He plays primarily hitscan DPS heroes such as Widowmaker, McCree and Tracer, but he's also been known to play other DPS heroes as his team needs.

According to Liquipedia, sHockWave is a relatively recent arrival to competitive Overwatch. Where most players have careers stretching back to Overwatch's beta, he joined his first team in January 2020. He stayed with that team, known as Square One, until March, when he joined the Montreal Rebellion, the academy team of the Toronto Defiant.

The next month, the Rebellion was discontinued and sHockWave was forced to seek a new team. He ended up joining Raspberry Racers less than two weeks after the disbanding, where he stayed until the Titans added him to the roster Friday, May 22. He was the second former Raspberry Racers player to join, following tank player Alhumaidi "KSAA" Alruwaili.
